At 25.0 m below the surface of the sea, where the temperature is 5.00C, a diver exhales an air bubble having a volume of 1.00 cm3. If the surface temperature of the sea is 20.0C, what is the volume of the bubble just before it breaks the surface?
At 96° F the saturation density of air is 0.04 kg/m3. If the weather report says the relative humidity is 81 % when the temperature is 96°F, the humidity is [Provide your final answer up to 3 decimal places, e.g. 0.312]
The temperature of the ocean off the coast of New Jersey ranges from about 3 °C in late winter to about 24 °C in late summer. If we assume that the ocean temperature is representative of a layer that is 25 m deep and the only exchange of energy is at the ocean surface, what is the average energy flux at ocean surface that would be required to account for this temperature change?
At an altitude of 11,000 m (a typical cruising altitude for a jet airliner), the air temperature is -60.0 ∘C and the air density is 0.491 kg/m3. The molar mass of air is 28.8 g/mol. What is the pressure of the atmosphere at that altitude? (Note: The temperature at this altitude is not the same as at the surface of the earth, so the equation P=P0exp(−MgyRT) doesn't apply.)
A bag of potato chips contains 2.00 L of air when it is sealed at sea level at a pressure of 1.00 atm and a temperature of 20.0°C. What will be the volume of the air in the bag if you take it with you, still sealed, to the mountains where the temperature is 7.00°C and atmospheric pressure is 70.0 kPa? Assume that the bag behaves like a balloon and that the air in the bag is in thermal equilibrium with the outside air. (1 atm = 1.01 × 105 Pa)

In a certain solar house, energy from the Sun is stored in barrels filled with water. In a particular winter stretch of five cloudy days, 1.00* 10^6 kcal is needed to maintain the inside of the house at 22.0 C. Assuming that the water in the barrels is at 50.0 C and that the water has a density of 1.00 * 10^3 kg/m3, what volume of water is required?

The average rate at which energy is conducted outward through the ground surface in North America is 54.0 mW/m2, and the average thermal conductivity of the near-surface rocks is 2.50 W/mK. Assuming a surface temperature of 10.0 C, find the temperature at a depth of 35.0 km (near the base of the crust). Ignore the heat generated by the presence of radioactive elements.
Consider two identical buildings: one in Los Angeles, California, where the atmospheric pressure is 101 kPa and the other in Denver, Colorado, where the atmospheric pressure is 83 kPa. Both buildings are maintained at 21°C, and the infiltration rate for both buildings is 1.2 air changes per hour (ACH). That is, the entire air in the building is replaced completely by the outdoor air 1.2 times per hour on a day when the outdoor temperature at both locations is 10°C. Disregarding latent heat, determine the ratio of the heat losses by infiltration in the two cities.
Air at 20°C with a convection heat transfer coefficient of 25 W/m2·K blows over a horizontal steel hot plate (k = 43 W/m·K). The surface area of the plate is 0.38 m2 with a thickness of 2 cm. The plate surface is maintained at a constant temperature of Ts = 250°C and the plate loses 300 W from its surface by radiation. Calculate the inside plate temperature (Ti).
